Production of Bio-aromatics from Organic Waste and Domestic Waste
It will be clear soon how the processes devised for the production of bio-aromatics from organic waste and domestic waste are progressing on the laboratory scale. The first calculation of the returns and the cost can also be made at that stage. Biorizon business manager Joop Groen and Marcel Ligter, process technologist at Attero, are confident that these processes can be profitable.

Lignin as raw material for asphalt and roofing
Put a chemist and road-builder together and you have an explosive mix. Not in the sense that there is a danger of explosion but in terms of power and knowledge. By joining forces in the laboratory, Dr Ted Slaghek and Dave van Vliet of Biorzion co-founder TNO created a type of bitumen with improved properties. Based on lignin.
